The Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People (MOSOP), has insisted that exonerating the nine Ogoni civil rights activists including Ken Saro-Wiwa who were murdered on November 10, 1995, must be among the conditions for resolving the Ogoni crises by the Nigerian government. Saro-Wiwa, a writer and activist, heavily condemned the Nigerian military regime and the Anglo-Dutch petroleum company Royal Dutch/Shell for causing environmental damage to Ogoni land in his native Rivers State.

Niger Delta Group, MOSOP Wants Murdered Saro-Wiwa, Other ‘Ogoni 9’ Activists Exonerated To Resolve Crises In Region, Calls For RestructuringPresident of MOSOP, Fegalo Nsuke urged the government to exonerate Saro-Wiwa and others in a statement to mark the 2023 Ogoni Day celebrations.

President of MOSOP, Fegalo Nsuke urged the government to exonerate Saro-Wiwa and others in a statement to mark the 2023 Ogoni Day celebrations. Nsuke also called for a proper restructuring of the Nigerian federation to guarantee the rights of the “Ogoni people to function within a Nigerian federation as Ogoni people.”

“In 2020, I was brutalized by state security and detained for two days before the Ogoni day. In 2021, we came under direct attack from the Nigerian security forces that went as far as shooting at us on this very day. “Our decision is not a sign of weakness but part of our resolution to protect our people and maintain our commitment to non-violence. It is a sacrifice for peace and to frustrate the incriminating plans of oppressors. We will however take necessary legal actions including seeking legal remedies to break free from this repression.”

The group, therefore, called on the “Nigerian government to accept our proposals for the operation of the Ogoni Development Authority ”.
